From every Forest Smoothie at Bistro Zdravo we donate a profit for planting or forest protection

Meatless Movement recently had a chance to chat with Esma from Bistro Zdravo. Bistro Zdravo is committed to supporting the increasing demand of the plant-based community, to be a special place for relaxation, family gatherings, business meetings and precious moments, and a safe meeting place for all those seeking support and information on changing their life for the better.

Please tell us more about Bistro ZDRAVO

Experience your most beautiful moments with us
Bistro Zdravo

Bistro ZDRAVO is a vegan restaurant nested in Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Hercegovina. Founded in 2018 with the name that means both „healthy“ and „hello“ in Bosnian, and it is the nicest local greeting – wishing someone to be healthy.

Our concept is plant based whole foods and it is unique in not using refined sugars, deep frying and white flour. We are dedicated to healthy eating which make us one of a kind in Bosnia and Herzegovina, maybe even in the Balkan region. We offer a lot of gluten free options.

ZDRAVO is the main meeting place for vegan food lovers, athletes, and anyone dedicated to healthy living.

So let’s choose the right and healthy diet, build awareness of the importance of healthy living

We want to show with our food that healthy and plant based eating is delicious and simple. Guests love our raw spinach soup, our take on a traditional Bosnian meal palenta, walnut pate open sandwich, breakfast granolas and nice cream bowls.

When you take care of yourself and your health, you take care of Mother Earth

The restaurant atmosphere is very pleasant. Gorgeous indoor plants make it a green oasis and the play of light and colours make the interior even more special. Having been relocated recently bistro ZDRAVO got even closer to guests and attracted more plant based and healthy eating enthusiasts.

We manufacture our own nut butters, vegan spreads and cheese, plant milks and granolas. The cakes we make are raw and gluten free. Bistro ZDRAVO aims to support local producers, add value to community all by taking a zero waste approach. This month we are organising four tree planting actions in our community.

I am happy to watch them enjoy creating their healthy products

As we are dedicated to wholesome, healthy and eco friendly living, we organise various events, recipe and natural cosmetics workshops, meditation and yoga classes, dance, movie screenings. In addition, once a year in December we host Festival of Health with the holistic approach on mind, body and soul, covering topics like ecology, homeopathy, nutrition, sound therapy and supporting small local businesses.
